  2. My brother and I spent a couple of days in York. We walked around the city walls, explored the Minster and spent yesterday in the glory of the National Railway Museum.

    Then today we took a train to Leeds and got on the train to Carlisle, along Settle-Carlisle line. Beautiful countryside!

    A good time was had. I took loads of pictures, but only these two on my phone. Other photos will follow...

  3. Israeli Prime Minster Benjamin Netanyahu spoke before a joint session of Congress this week. Among other things protestors did in DC, they spray painted graffiti on a monument to Christopher Columbus, including the words, “Hamas is coming” in large red letters. In colossally poor taste, Christopher Columbus replied, “bring it, I’ll bring the small pox.”

  10. Mainstream media in Australia might finally be starting to wake-up and call-out Trump and his cronies.

    Years ago, the Sun-Herald used to be Sydney's broadsheet newspaper, but it has long since lost its sense of balance and political teeth after being bought-out by a succession of increasingly right-wing media moguls. It's quite remarkable that they're printing a headline like this now.

    The headline is a reference to a sledge aimed at cowardly, right-wing, yes-men for their support for the invasion of Iraq, "There they are a conga line of suckholes on the conservative side of politics." It was delivered by former ALP Leader of the Opposition and aspiring PM, Mark Latham (when he still sounded sane; long before he got RWNJ brainworms). I've always wondered about that particular line, and mused that his speechwriters were tapping into a vein of former Prime Minster, Paul Keating. He once said John Howard was "Like a shiver waiting for a spine to crawl up."

    Amusingly, the subeditor misnamed Jeff Bezos as "Geoff Bezos" in the caption.

    This picture was originally posted by someone else on Mastodon without Alt-text, so I have liberated it and added Alt-text.

  12. St Mary the Virgin is a very old church in Minster in #Thanet, #Kent.
    The chancel is typically 'Early English' in architecture and style, and the beautiful nave has remained in its present form since 1150.

    St Mary's #Church - traditionally called the 'Cathedral of the Marshes' - boasts a set of eighteen superbly preserved #Misericords (Quire Stalls).

  13. His campaign forced Sinead O'Connor to scrap a 1997 Jerusalem concert. Now he is a Cabinet minister

    #Death #threats forced Irish pop singer #Sinead #OConnor to call off a peace concert in Jerusalem in the summer of 1997. At the time, a young man named #Itamar #Ben-#Gvir took credit for the campaign against her.

    Today, he is Israel’s national security minister.

    The transformation of Ben-Gvir from a fringe Israeli extremist trying to take down O’Connor’s coexistence-themed concert to a powerful minster overseeing the Israeli police force reflects the dramatic #rise of #Israel’s #far-#right

  15. And finally, I stopped in Shaftesbury, the old market town that my family members would presumably have known well as it's just a few miles from their villages.

    According to tradition, Shaftesbury was once known as Caer Palladwr in Celtic Britain; actual recorded history dates to the 8th century CE, by which time where was an important minster in the town. Alfred the Great built the abbey here in the 9th century and placed his daughter, Aethelgifu, there as the first abbess. The body of King Edward the Martyr ended up buried here after this murder in the late 10th century, and Cnut died here.

    It was featured in the Domesday Book and the abbey continued as an important site until the dissolution of the monasteries. After this, Shaftesbury continued as a market town, but faced decline as industrialisation took hold in the country. Thomas Hardy wrote of it:

    "Vague imaginings of its castle, its three mints, its magnificent apsidal abbey, the chief glory of south Wessex, its twelve churches, its shrines, chantries, hospitals, its gabled freestone mansions—all now ruthlessly swept away—throw the visitor, even against his will, into a pensive melancholy, which the stimulating atmosphere and limitless landscape around him can scarcely dispel."

    I didn't feel any melancholy, I have to say - even though I arrived at the end of a grey day at the tail end of September, after the abbey had closed for the day. I'd have liked to spend more time there.

  16. Marcus Dods, Free Church of Scotland minster, writes on the charge to remember the poor (1 Cor 16:1). With all the abuses of the poor, hard to see how to end poverty. But we can think of connections to harsh conditions and our cheap comforts. There is blood-guilt here.

    Today, would many object to even a consideration of the connection between hard lives and cheap goods?

    How can you brighten some lives?
